in diagnosing a suspected case, Uu
veterinarian has to consider the en
tire pattern of symptoms. Otherwise
the disease may be confused with
ange, virus scouring, or other all

Hardening ut skin, one symptom
of “X” IJis- se.
A recent survey ot several out
oreaks indicated that newly-purchased
cattle have served as carriers or, in
some other way. brought "X disease'
into home herds So authorities are
warning farmers to be especially
careful in purchasing feeder stock
or breeding animals. A veterinary
check-up of the newcomers seems to
be s wise precaution.
